Aha! That did it! Thanks. I just wish the CodeJock docs had pointed this out or provided a tutorial.

The only thing I can find is the special AboutDlg included by the sample. How do I make this work in my own app?
 
Thanks,

Are you referring to the menus or the controls in your dialogs?
 
If it's the menus, try this tutorial: http://www.codejock.com/support/articles/mfc/commandbars/cb_1.asp
 
If it's the controls in your dialogs, have you embedded a manifest?  If not, try this article: http://www.codeproject.com/w2k/xptheme.asp
